The start and end attributes specify the range of characters to which the
Pango attribute applies. If start and end are not specified, the attribute is
applied to the whole text. Note that specifying ranges does not make much
sense with translatable attributes. Use markup embedded in the translatable
content instead.

<div class="refsect2">
<a name="id646736"></a><h3>Mnemonics</h3>
<p>
Labels may contain <em class="firstterm">mnemonics</em>. Mnemonics are
underlined characters in the label, used for keyboard navigation.
Mnemonics are created by providing a string with an underscore before
the mnemonic character, such as <code class="literal">"_File"</code>, to the
functions <a class="link" href="GtkLabel.html#gtk-label-new-with-mnemonic" title="gtk_label_new_with_mnemonic ()"><code class="function">gtk_label_new_with_mnemonic()</code></a> or
<a class="link" href="GtkLabel.html#gtk-label-set-text-with-mnemonic" title="gtk_label_set_text_with_mnemonic ()"><code class="function">gtk_label_set_text_with_mnemonic()</code></a>.
</p>
<p>
Mnemonics automatically activate any activatable widget the label is
inside, such as a <a class="link" href="GtkButton.html" title="GtkButton"><span class="type">GtkButton</span></a>; if the label is not inside the
mnemonic's target widget, you have to tell the label about the target
using <a class="link" href="GtkLabel.html#gtk-label-set-mnemonic-widget" title="gtk_label_set_mnemonic_widget ()"><code class="function">gtk_label_set_mnemonic_widget()</code></a>. Here's a simple example where
the label is inside a button:
</p>
<div class="informalexample">
  <table class="listing_frame" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">
    <tbody>
      <tr>

<a name="id646857"></a><h3>Markup (styled text)</h3>
<p>
To make it easy to format text in a label (changing colors, fonts,
etc.), label text can be provided in a simple <a href="/usr/share/gtk-doc/html/pango/PangoMarkupFormat.html">markup format</a>.
Here's how to create a label with a small font:
</p>
<div class="informalexample">
  <table class="listing_frame" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">
    <tbody>
      <tr>
        <td class="listing_lines" align="right"><pre>1
2</pre></td>
        <td class="listing_code"><pre class="programlisting"><span class="normal">label </span><span class="symbol">=</span><span class="normal"> </span><span class="function"><a href="GtkLabel.html#gtk-label-new">gtk_label_new</a></span><span class="normal"> </span><span class="symbol">(</span><span class="normal"><a href="http://library.gnome.org/devel/glib/unstable/glib-Standard-Macros.html#NULL:CAPS">NULL</a></span><span class="symbol">);</span>
<span class="function"><a href="GtkLabel.html#gtk-label-set-markup">gtk_label_set_markup</a></span><span class="normal"> </span><span class="symbol">(</span><span class="function">GTK_LABEL</span><span class="normal"> </span><span class="symbol">(</span><span class="normal">label</span><span class="symbol">),</span><span class="normal"> </span><span class="string">"&lt;small&gt;Small text&lt;/small&gt;"</span><span class="symbol">);</span></pre></td>
      </tr>
    </tbody>
  </table>
</div>

<p>
(See <a href="/usr/share/gtk-doc/html/pango/PangoMarkupFormat.html">complete documentation</a> of available
tags in the Pango manual.)
</p>
<p>
The markup passed to <a class="link" href="GtkLabel.html#gtk-label-set-markup" title="gtk_label_set_markup ()"><code class="function">gtk_label_set_markup()</code></a> must be valid; for example,
literal &lt;/&gt;/&amp; characters must be escaped as &amp;lt;,
&amp;gt;, and &amp;amp;. If you pass text obtained from the user, file,
or a network to <a class="link" href="GtkLabel.html#gtk-label-set-markup" title="gtk_label_set_markup ()"><code class="function">gtk_label_set_markup()</code></a>, you'll want to escape it with
<a href="http://library.gnome.org/devel/glib/unstable/glib-Simple-XML-Subset-Parser.html#g-markup-escape-text"><code class="function">g_markup_escape_text()</code></a> or <a href="http://library.gnome.org/devel/glib/unstable/glib-Simple-XML-Subset-Parser.html#g-markup-printf-escaped"><code class="function">g_markup_printf_escaped()</code></a>.
</p>
<p>
Markup strings are just a convenient way to set the <a href="/usr/share/gtk-doc/html/pango/pango-Text-Attributes.html#PangoAttrList"><span class="type">PangoAttrList</span></a> on
a label; <a class="link" href="GtkLabel.html#gtk-label-set-attributes" title="gtk_label_set_attributes ()"><code class="function">gtk_label_set_attributes()</code></a> may be a simpler way to set
attributes in some cases. Be careful though; <a href="/usr/share/gtk-doc/html/pango/pango-Text-Attributes.html#PangoAttrList"><span class="type">PangoAttrList</span></a> tends to
cause internationalization problems, unless you're applying attributes
to the entire string (i.e. unless you set the range of each attribute
to [0, G_MAXINT)). The reason is that specifying the start_index and
end_index for a <a href="/usr/share/gtk-doc/html/pango/pango-Text-Attributes.html#PangoAttribute"><span class="type">PangoAttribute</span></a> requires knowledge of the exact string
being displayed, so translations will cause problems.
</p>

<div class="refsect2">
<a name="id646974"></a><h3>Selectable labels</h3>
<p>
Labels can be made selectable with <a class="link" href="GtkLabel.html#gtk-label-set-selectable" title="gtk_label_set_selectable ()"><code class="function">gtk_label_set_selectable()</code></a>.
Selectable labels allow the user to copy the label contents to
the clipboard. Only labels that contain useful-to-copy information
— such as error messages — should be made selectable.
</p>
</div>
<hr>
<div class="refsect2">
<a name="id646997"></a><h3>Text layout</h3>
<p>
A label can contain any number of paragraphs, but will have
performance problems if it contains more than a small number.
Paragraphs are separated by newlines or other paragraph separators
understood by Pango.
</p>
<p>
Labels can automatically wrap text if you call
<a class="link" href="GtkLabel.html#gtk-label-set-line-wrap" title="gtk_label_set_line_wrap ()"><code class="function">gtk_label_set_line_wrap()</code></a>.
</p>
<p>
<a class="link" href="GtkLabel.html#gtk-label-set-justify" title="gtk_label_set_justify ()"><code class="function">gtk_label_set_justify()</code></a> sets how the lines in a label align
with one another. If you want to set how the label as a whole
aligns in its available space, see <a class="link" href="GtkMisc.html#gtk-misc-set-alignment" title="gtk_misc_set_alignment ()"><code class="function">gtk_misc_set_alignment()</code></a>.

<a name="id647049"></a><h3>Links</h3>
<p>
Since 2.18, GTK+ supports markup for clickable hyperlinks in addition
to regular Pango markup. The markup for links is borrowed from HTML, using the
<code class="sgmltag-element">a</code> with href and title attributes. GTK+ renders links similar to the
way they appear in web browsers, with colored, underlined text. The title
attribute is displayed as a tooltip on the link. An example looks like this:
</p>
<div class="informalexample">
  <table class="listing_frame" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">
    <tbody>
      <tr>
        <td class="listing_lines" align="right"><pre>1</pre></td>
        <td class="listing_code"><pre class="programlisting"><span class="function"><a href="GtkLabel.html#gtk-label-set-markup">gtk_label_set_markup</a></span><span class="normal"> </span><span class="symbol">(</span><span class="normal">label</span><span class="symbol">,</span><span class="normal"> </span><span class="string">"Go to the &lt;a href=</span><span class="specialchar">\"</span><span class="string">http://www.gtk.org</span><span class="specialchar">\"</span><span class="string"> title=</span><span class="specialchar">\"</span><span class="string">&amp;lt;i&amp;gt;Our&amp;/i&amp;gt; website</span><span class="specialchar">\"</span><span class="string">&gt;GTK+ website&lt;/a&gt; for more..."</span><span class="symbol">);</span></pre></td>
      </tr>
    </tbody>
  </table>
</div>

<p>
It is possible to implement custom handling for links and their tooltips with
the <a class="link" href="GtkLabel.html#GtkLabel-activate-link" title='The "activate-link" signal'><span class="type">"activate-link"</span></a> signal and the <a class="link" href="GtkLabel.html#gtk-label-get-current-uri" title="gtk_label_get_current_uri ()"><code class="function">gtk_label_get_current_uri()</code></a> function.

If the label has been set so that it has an mnemonic key (using
i.e. <a class="link" href="GtkLabel.html#gtk-label-set-markup-with-mnemonic" title="gtk_label_set_markup_with_mnemonic ()"><code class="function">gtk_label_set_markup_with_mnemonic()</code></a>,

or the "use_underline" property) the label can be associated with a
widget that is the target of the mnemonic. When the label is inside
a widget (like a <a class="link" href="GtkButton.html" title="GtkButton"><span class="type">GtkButton</span></a> or a <a class="link" href="GtkNotebook.html" title="GtkNotebook"><span class="type">GtkNotebook</span></a> tab) it is
automatically associated with the correct widget, but sometimes
(i.e. when the target is a <a class="link" href="GtkEntry.html" title="GtkEntry"><span class="type">GtkEntry</span></a> next to the label) you need to
set it explicitly using this function.
</p>
<p>
The target widget will be accelerated by emitting the 
GtkWidget::mnemonic-activate signal on it. The default handler for 
this signal will activate the widget if there are no mnemonic collisions 
and toggle focus between the colliding widgets otherwise.
